Trump ally Laura Loomer has branded Iran's mass state funeral for assassinated Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei a 'target rich environment,' borrowing military strike language as millions of mourners prepare to flood Tehran.

The far-right activist posted the remark on 2 July 2026, quoting a New York Post report on the long-delayed ceremony. She paired the phrase with a bomb emoji, appearing to cast a gathering of civilians as a legitimate target.
